Bio

I'm an experienced leader who is both analytical and gets things done in Digital Business Development. My professional goal is to help established players secure competitiveness and success in the digital arena, or possibly to help smaller players overturn the established ones. As a person, I’m appreciated by my managers for being both analytical and moving things forward. I'm a structured problem solver, both curious and creative. My peers appreciate me for being friendly and social, and my reportees appreciate getting attention, support and coaching. ► 10+ years in Business Development and Digital Transformation Over the years, I've participated in and managed all phases of digital product & service development - from ideation through development to implementation/commercialization and maintenance. I've worked with a wide range of digital products/services, e.g. customer facing products, a global retail web site turning over 1 000+ MSEK, information processing platforms and platforms for internal efficiency gains. I have a solid understanding of business, organization and technology in general, enabling me to see the bigger picture to set and reach ambitious goals. ► 10+ years in Management and Leadership I've managed teams of up to 23 reportees with good results in employee satisfaction surveys, and also have experience from cross-country team leadership as well as integration work as a result of corporate mergers. I've also been working successfully with M&As. For 8+ years I’ve had full Profit and Loss Responsibility with a budget of up to 100+ MSEK. My approach to leadership is one of openness and transparency. I’m strong in developing and executing on strategies, navigate though rapid change and have the ability to communicate and enthuse others to reach set goals. ► Experience from Sales & Marketing With experience from several angles in sales & marketing, I have a thorough understanding on how to approach and address customer needs as well as how to manage a sales pipeline. I’ve worked with Key Account Management and commercialization of products and services, and also have experience from blogging and public speaking.
